cartooning_monkey - August 1, 2005 07:24 AM (GMT)
In the update on Thursday, July 21, the Half-life music was announced to be available on Saturday, July 31 and ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm WHERE IS IT?!!!!!!!!! (Furious snorts of rage and impatience)
cartooning_monkey - August 1, 2005 05:16 PM (GMT)
Very very good! Tomorrow the Half-life Series Soundtrack will be ready. Oh joy joy joy!
Hunter2049 - August 1, 2005 05:27 PM (GMT)
Yeah, sorry about that, man! The servers here are VERY fickle.....turns out the problem was in our lettering, we had it as "Half-life's OST" and you can't have the apostrophe in the lettering, oops Oh well, as you put it, it'll be up tomorrow!
Thanks for registering!

Excellent! I can't wait (hums happily).
As for those apostrophies, I think we should get rid of 'em, more trouble than they're worth! Stupid apostrophies.

A-HEM! Where is the delightful Half-life Soundtrack we were said would come today in the afternoon? (Disgruntled scowl) :angry:
Hunter2049 - August 3, 2005 05:11 AM (GMT)
You try writing 3 pages worth of Half-Life info after working all day ;)!
Try this out (it's a little secret that'll get you more game soundtracks than people even know we have ;)!)
If you take a look at the file name for this one..........which is for Diddy Kong Racing, you'll notice that after the /vgtunes it's /(game name here).zip
SSSSSOOOOOO...........
You may want to type in, oh....I don't know.......
Half-life_OPF.zip
or.......
Half-Life 2.zip
or.....
Half-Life.zip
Just an idea ;) I'll have the official pages up after a while. Like I said, you might have fun trying other games, just think of something and type it in! Enjoy :)!
cartooning_monkey - August 3, 2005 08:04 AM (GMT)
Hey! I'm not blaming you or pressuring you or anything! I really appreciate all the hard work you have put into this site. I just really love the music in the Half-life games and I am looking foreward to the soundtrack. That's all!
Hunter2049 - August 3, 2005 11:40 AM (GMT)
You did see I told you how to get the songs, right ;)!
cartooning_monkey - August 3, 2005 08:19 PM (GMT)
YES YOU DID! FANTASTIC! THANK YOU SO MUCH! LISTENING TO IT NOW! THANK YOU SO MUCH! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Is it just my computer, or is there a problem with the Half-life 2 soundtrack? I downloaded the first one, and that worked fine after I extracted it, but the second one will not run. It says that there are no files in the folder. I'm going to download the OPF instead.
Hunter2049 - August 4, 2005 08:47 PM (GMT)
Yes, it's my fault, I changed it so that the soundtracks have the actual file names and it cut out in the middle......probably should restart that ;) It'll be up later tonight......
cartooning_monkey - August 4, 2005 10:21 PM (GMT)
Oh, well good! I was afraid I was going to have to download the OPF! 34 or so megabytes + dial-up, does not lead to a very pleasant experience! :) I think that the Half-life soundtrack is excellent! I can't stop listening to it! Thank you!

I hate to be a total newbie here but....I am. I can't find the songs at all and I would love to. I tried the search options suggested above and got nothing....how do you get the songs?
Hunter2049 - August 6, 2005 03:31 AM (GMT)
Not a problem, it was worded odd anyways ;)
Half-LifeHalf-Life 2and Half-Life OPF.Enjoy! And I did get your e-mail, just figured it'd be easier to reply here ;)!
Welcome to VGTunes! I should have the proper pages up by the end of the week, I've been SSSSOOOO busy lately!

Oh crap :o , Sorry about the apostrophe's when i uploaded the soundtracks Hunter that was entirely my bad. :P
Hunter2049 - August 6, 2005 03:47 AM (GMT)
No, you had it right, I had changed it myself :P!
Hunter2049 - August 6, 2005 03:48 AM (GMT)
^And in case everybody hadn't figured it out by now, those soundtracks were completely provided by staff member Phantom ;)!

:D Just wanted to thank you for helping me out! God knows why I couldn't find the files....the joys of being a newbie I guess :P Thanks for the welcome too, I love what you are doing with this music...appreciate all the work it takes to get it out there too!

Thanks for fixing the soundtrack, I'm sure it will be better than the first one. 38.4 mb and dial-up do not mix. Well better download. sigh . . . . two hours. :(

man! i cant get it to work! :(

What seems to be the problem?
cartooning_monkey - August 21, 2005 05:31 AM (GMT)
Did you extract the files? When you get a zipped folder you almost always need to extract the files inside. Right click on the folder and select extract all. It worked on mine!
Hunter2049 - August 22, 2005 04:45 AM (GMT)
We use Fileplanet to host our songs. If you don't have a Gamespy ID, you need to create one
here. If you already have one, you need to login there first, then go to back to the soundtrack page and click download again.

imkopaka - August 22, 2005 05:27 AM (GMT)
NOOOOOO!!!!! it doesnt have my favorite song!!! the one where you are in the airboat and the attack chopper is chasing you through the broken sewer pipes? right before you get to that part where you have to drop the washing machine into the weighted elevator? help? :(
Hunter2049 - August 22, 2005 05:29 AM (GMT)
Hmmm.........I was told this was the complete soundtrack..... :blink: ......I'll have to check with the staff member who provided it, but if I don't talk to him before tomorrow night, I'll record it myself........
Sorry 'bout the inconvieniance!
imkopaka - August 22, 2005 05:43 AM (GMT)
